Hi Carol, Darcy here, I also have the sores on my face. So sorry, its awful.. My advice
from experience, dont mess with them.. put benedryl cream, hydrocortizone cream
on the spots and leave them. They come and go. Ive had P.N for 6 years. When I developed these painful spots, it was the most stressful time in my life. I didnt seek medical attention for it, because I thought they where blemishes, pimples.
I put everything under the sun on them, picked at them because of the stress and anxiety...I have scaring on my face upper back, upper arms and lower legs.
Its been interesting with doctors, misdiagnosis. steroid creams that have made my skin discolored. And the biggest antagonist...Being treated like a picker, and not helping at all, but, adding to the condition. Carol, dont let anyone talk down to you because of this. Just dont touch, pick. use the creams I suggested please..they will help you through the breakouts, flares..

I started getting them around when I was on dupixent, but I've been off that for a long time, and it still goes thru rotations of sores or a lot of sensitivity, never really gone.

Prurigo nodularis (PN) typically causes firm nodules to form on the skin due to intense itching and scratching. These nodules can appear anywhere on the body that can be easily scratched, such as the arms, legs, back, and abdomen. While the context does not specifically mention the face, it is possible for PN to affect various parts of the body. The nodules may be the same color as your skin or look pink, red, or dark brown, and they can be very itchy or painful. If you have concerns about sores or bumps on your face, it's best to consult a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

Yes, on my face. Feel horrible under the skin. I have the worst of it on my legs. Then, face, top of shoulders, hair line, eyes, ears, UGH!!! I don't itch much, other than my eyes/face. Basically it's pain.
